• > 30 days post-transplant without active or chronic infections
• Karnofsky performance status >= 60%; Lansky >= 60
• Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) >= institutional lower limit of normal by multigated acquisition (MUGA) scan or echocardiogram within 30 days of first protocol treatment
• Diffusion capacity of the lung for carbon monoxide (DLCO) > 40% of predicted value (corrected for hemoglobin) within 3 months of registration
• Forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1) > 40% of predicted value within 3 months of registration
• Forced vital capacity (FVC) > 40% of predicted value within 3 months of registration
• Serum creatinine =< 1.5 mg/dL (133 mmol/L)
• Serum albumin >= 3.2 g/dL (or >= 32 g/L) without IV albumin within the previous 72 hours
• Bilirubin =< 1.5 x the upper limit of normal ([ULN] except patients with Gilbert syndrome in whom bilirubin level of > 1.5 x ULN will be allowed)
• Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) =< 2.5 times ULN
• Hemoglobin >= 8 g/dL with or without transfusion in the last 7 days
• Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) >= 1000 without granulocyte colony stimulating factor (GCSF) or granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GMCSF) in the last 2 weeks prior to screening
• Platelets >= 50,000micro/mL
• For allo-HCT, no >= grade 2 visceral (gut or liver) acute graft versus host disease (GVHD) and no >= grade 3 or any other acute GVHD (patients with chronic GVHD will be allowed at the discretion of the investigator)
• Patient agrees to use acceptable contraceptive methods for the duration of time in the study, and to continue to use acceptable contraceptive methods for 2 months after the last tagraxofusp infusion
• Woman of child bearing potential (WOCBP) with a negative serum or urine pregnancy test within 14 days of tagraxofusp treatment
• Patient or patient’s legal representative, parent(s) or guardian able to sign informed consent
• The patient can adhere to the study visit schedule and other protocol requirements, including follow-up for survival assessment

Exclusion Criteria

• The patient has persistent clinically significant non-hematologic toxicities >= grade 2 (excluding alopecia, nausea, and fatigue)
• Evidence of central nervous system (CNS) involvement
• Uncontrolled and active pulmonary disease
• Requirement for oxygen treatment
• Receiving chemotherapy, radiotherapy or other anti-cancer therapy within 14 days of first dose of study drug. There must be at least a 6-week interval from the last immunotherapy therapy
• Uncontrolled infection

• Any history of invasive malignancy in the last 2 years excluding any malignancy such as cervical cancer or skin cancer (excluding melanoma) that is considered cured at the time of screening
• Pregnant or breast-feeding woman
• Patient has uncontrolled intercurrent illness or medical/psychiatric condition that would limit compliance with study requirements or that would in the investigator’s opinion place the patient at an unacceptably high risk for toxicities
• Clinical significant cardiopulmonary disease including uncontrolled or New York Heart Association (NYHA) class 3 or 4 congestive heart failure, uncontrolled angina, uncontrolled hypertension, uncontrolled arrhythmia, myocardial infarction or stroke within 6 months of first protocol treatment or corrected QT (QTc) > 480 ms
